A Twilight Wedding Dress

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

“New Moon,” the latest Twilight movie, hits theaters at midnight tonight, and we know plenty of Wedding Paper Divas staffers who are flocking to the theaters to drool over their favorite vampires and werewolves!

I haven’t read the Twilight series, but I do know that dark vintage romance is going to be a hot trend for 2010 weddings, so I love looking at photos of the characters’ smoky, sultry vampire style. Any Twilight-loving brides-to-be are sure to adore this spread from InStyle that features top designers’ sketches for Bella’s wedding dress in an upcoming film.

Birdcage Veils for the Glamorous Bride

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

If you’re a non-traditional bride looking to follow the most fashion-forward wedding trends of 2010, a birdcage veil might be just what you’re looking for. These vintage-inspired headpieces combine a soft net veil that covers part of the face, and is embellished with flowers, feathers and jewels. This trend is truly dramatic and glamorous and will make a bold statement on your wedding day. What’s your take on birdcage veils, are you a fan of old-hollywood-esque glamour, or would you stay with something more traditional?
